Re: William Alder -Grave of Union Soldier in Civil War

Thank you for sharing that.I don't know anything about 2 of the 3 William Alders that you mention, but William W. Alder is most likely my great-grandfather's half-brother William Washington Alder.His parents were Anderson Alder and Rachel (Kemp) Alder, and he was born 8 Aug 1844 in Belmont Co., OH.He served in the Indiana Infantry, he married Serena Blain on 8 Oct 1873, and he died in 1914 in Lafayette, IN.Therefore, I doubt that he is the one buried in Alabama.
